The AKI-S is a 65% compact mechanical keyboard designed with a focus on aesthetics and functionality. Inspired by Japanese culture and Autumn, the project emphasizes a sleek and timeless design reminiscent of luxury sports cars. The board features a symmetric blocker design, which limits customization of the bottom row but enhances its streamlined appearance. The bottom weight is engraved with a snowflake, reflecting the designer's personal elements. The AKI-S aims to provide essential utility without the need for extensive key reprogramming, making it an appealing choice for those seeking a stylish yet practical keyboard.
